Fat-Chance Gold Panning
Easy on The Old Spine
IDAHO 6PRINGS, Colo., July 11
I Here's hot-weather mining
venture whoe operators guaran
tee you can't lose. But, tongue
in cheek, they call It the Fat
Chance Mining Co. The invest
ment? 75 cents. , .
This entitles you to a pair of
tweezers, a pan, water and some
gold-bearing dirt. What you get
out of it is up to you.
After paying his six bits, the
"miner" gets a scoop of dirt,
stakes out a claim at a long sluice
box which is belt-high to save
wear and tear on the back mus

Man Appeals Firing
For Assumed Name
NEW YORK uFI A 74-year-old
man, fired after 45 years as a
city laborer because he used an
assumed name, has ' asked the
State Supreme Court to order his
reinstatement.
. Nicholas Laa said in his peti

the name "Joseph Porgic" while
on the city payroll because that
name appeared on his original
employment card. He did not ex
plain why.

"That's it rotate the pan In the
water. Now scrape off the top
gravel. There won't be any gold
in that . . . Cold's heavier, you
know, goes to the bottom of the
Pn. .
"Whirl It some more. Not so
fast. That shine? Mica. Now we're
getting down to the black stuff.
That's magnetite and ilmenlte.
Easy now. Ha here It is. Color.
See It?" .
The "prospector" uses the pair
o! tweezers to pluck the little
flakes of gold from the pan and
deposit them into a small vial. He
also is given a certificate for shares
in the "common rock'! of the corp
oration, s . ..
Some tourists, eyes agleam, try
pan after pan ot the gravel. The
operation should take 10 minutes,
Kaasch says, but the "eager-beavers"
go through a panful in a
couple of minutes and thereby miss
the gold. ,
Others figure they can do bet
terfor free in the nearby creek.
They take off their shoes and
wade in but the results are almost
always disappointing.
. Business is good at the Fat
Chance. Kaasch says the firm
plans to open up a similar opera
tion in Central City, another tour
